<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">How Xerte plays swf files is
confusing me. I have a very simple swf file. It uses AS3, is made of five
frames and within each frame is a MovieClip of less than 2 seconds.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">I’ve added a component and set
the URL to the appropriate value. But it looks like my ActionScript to stop the
top level frame and run the MovieClips is being ignored. Only the top five
frames are being played on an endless cycle.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">The documentation I’ve found
seems straightforward: If the clip needs interaction/ variables to be passed to
it etc, then you need to use InitObject (which has me thoroughly stumped btw).
As mine doesn’t require interaction (it just needs to read the AS) do I need to
use InitObject? If so, what values do I need to initialise?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">If I don’t need InitObject, what
do I need to do so that Xerte acknowledges the presence of my AS? </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">Sorry about the wealth of
communication today, but as I figure out how it works you’ll stop hearing from
me <span style="font-family:Wingdings">J</span></p>
